[PATCH] perf tests: Fix lib path detection for non-x86 architectures
From: Suchit Karunakaran
Date: Sun Jul 20 2025 - 04:59:27 EST
The existing Makefile logic for determining library paths was
hardcoded for x86 architectures, causing incorrect behavior
on other platforms. This patch implements a portable solution
using system bit detection.
